The school delivers the International Baccalaureate across all divisions, with the Primary Years Programme available from the Early Learning Centre through Primary (ages 3-12). In secondary, a bespoke pathway combines a pre-IB programme for Grades 9-10 with dedicated career guidance to prepare for the Diploma Programme (DP), a two-year programme for ages 16-19 that leads to higher education. The campus blends historic and modern spaces, featuring an Early Learning Centre and Primary Logierhaus, a dedicated Secondary Building, outdoor learning areas including the Waldsofa forest, and two boarding houses. Facilities include a gym, a soccer pitch, a basketball court, science labs, and a well-stocked secondary library. Extracurriculars span MUN, STEM and UNESCO clubs, arts and crafts, and sport, with forest-based learning, community service, and leadership opportunities central to student life for curious learners.
